Hot Spell Sauna

Operating directly on the Lake Michigan waterfront at McKinley Marina, Hot Spell offers outdoor wood-fired saunas paired with open-water cold plunging [3.1.5]. Sweaters cycle between intense red-oak heat and stepping onto heated docks to plunge straight into the icy lake harbor.

The move: Book a 75-minute wood-fired sauna session, sweat side-by-side overlooking the water, take a cold plunge off the marina dock, and warm up by the outdoor red oak firepits.
